Liu Laidi was directing Wang Pan'er to do housework when she saw Aunt Ma come in. She quickly greeted her, "Auntie, what brings you here?"
As soon as Aunt Ma sat down after entering the room, without waiting for Liu Laidi to serve her tea, she said mysteriously, "Laidi, do you know who I saw today?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Laidi asked curiously, "Who is it? The old lady is acting all mysterious."
"Dr. Fu Ya, there's also a man and her three kids. You don't know, her daughter is so well-fed and chubby, you can tell at a glance that she's never lacked food or drink?"
Liu Laidi immediately spat, "When Deputy Battalion Commander Rong goes on a mission, I've never seen his family go to the canteen to get food. It seems they're eating at that so-called master's place again. They're shameless."
The two talked badly about Fu Ya for a while longer, and then Aunt Ma left satisfied. She was certain that Liu Laidi, that big mouth, would not miss the opportunity to spread bad rumors about Fu Ya.
Sure enough, as soon as Aunt Ma left, Liu Laidi immediately tried to go out, but Wang Pan'er's cold voice came from behind her: "If you dare to go out and spread rumors, I will report you and then persuade my dad to divorce you."
Liu Laidi looked at Wang Pan'er with resentment. Ever since her daughter fell ill, she had suffered a lot at her hands.
For example, when she was in postpartum confinement, she asked Wang Pan'er to wash her younger brother's diapers and cook for her; she could get anything done by asking.
But after Liu Laidi finished her postpartum confinement, she couldn't get Liu Laidi to do any work that wasn't her responsibility.
Washing clothes is fine, but you can wash your own. You want her to wash her brother's diapers? No way.
He even wanted to order her to wash his clothes? No way! If she dared to lay a hand on him, Wang Pan'er would make a scene that the whole family compound would know about.
When her food rations were cut back, Wang Pan'er fainted from hunger in front of Xiang Lan. When she was prevented from studying, Wang Pan'er knelt down and begged her in front of others.
Over the past two years, the mother and daughter have had many battles, but Liu Laidi has always come out on the losing end and made things ugly. Wang Qiang has grown increasingly disliked Liu Laidi, and the affection they once shared has almost completely faded away after she repeatedly embarrassed him.
Wang Qiang was becoming increasingly impatient with Liu Laidi, and Liu Laidi knew it. She knew Wang Pan'er wasn't joking. She glared at Wang Pan'er resentfully, then went back to her room and closed the door, wanting to avoid seeing her.
Wang Pan'er slowly wiped the table, her eyes filled with fierce fighting spirit.
When Wang Qiang returned home that evening, she quietly told him everything that had happened since Aunt Ma came to their house that day.
Finally, he said, "I guess Aunt Ma wants to take advantage of my mother, so I scared her and she didn't go out. But I'm worried she won't be able to keep her mouth shut tomorrow, so you'd better talk to her too."
Wang Pan'er respected this father very much, but he needed to correct his soft-heartedness towards Liu Laidi, otherwise he would lose his life for Liu Laidi, just like in the dream.
If he were still alive, she would never have been sold by Liu Laidi to work as a nanny for the rest of her life.
Wang Qiang also had a headache with this daughter. If you said she was unfilial, she would do all the chores that were supposed to be done. If you said she was filial, she would go against her mother every day.
However, she did the right thing today. He knew Qian Manguan from the logistics company and knew a lot about Master Ronglianhu being a reclusive master.
Although he envied Rong Lianhu, he knew he couldn't offend him, so he nodded and said, "I'll warn your mother. Okay, go have fun!"
And so, with Liu Laidi, that silly goose, gone from the family compound, Aunt Ma's plan died in the womb.
She waited and waited, but Liu Laidi didn't spread any rumors. She couldn't very well order Liu Laidi to spread rumors right away.
Since Aunt Ma didn't dare to spread the rumors herself, the matter was left unresolved.
Fu Ya knew nothing about these things. She bought some things in the morning and ate lunch in town.
Rong Jiaojiao takes a one-hour nap after meals every day; it has become a habit.
Today was no exception. After eating my fill and playing with my brothers for a while, I started to feel drowsy.
Fu Ya coaxed her to sleep and carried her to bed, but less than ten minutes later, Rong Jiaojiao’s heart-wrenching cries came from inside the room.
Qing Xuanzi had never heard his little disciple cry like this before, and he was so shocked that he threw the talisman brush in his hand far away.
People rushed into the house, and Fu Ya, Rong Zhigao, and Rong Zhiyuan were no less frightened, all running in in a panic.
Rong Jiaojiao had already been picked up by Qing Xuanzi. Her face was flushed from crying, her little hands were tightly gripping Qing Xuanzi's clothes, and her body was curled up in a ball, as if she had been greatly frightened.
Her sobs were trembling, and it made everyone's heart clench.
Qing Xuanzi gently patted her back, channeling some spiritual energy into her to help her relax.
Seeing that Rong Jiaojiao's crying had subsided, Rong Zhiyuan asked, "Little sister, what's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Rong Jiaojiao started crying again: "Father Xi, Daddy is in pain, Father Xi, go beat the bad guys."
She repeated it several times, her eyes filled with helplessness and fear as she looked at Qing Xuanzi.
Qing Xuanzi was greatly alarmed upon hearing her words. He began to make a divination with his fingers, and after looking at the faces of Fu Ya, Rong Zhigao, and Rong Zhiyuan, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Rong Jiaojiao was still sobbing, her red eyes looking expectantly at Qing Xuanzi.
Qing Xuanzi patted her and comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright."
It was calculated that Rong Lianhu would suffer a serious injury this time, but Fu Ya's expression did not reveal any changes in their family as a result of Rong Lianhu's injury.
In other words, Rong Lianhu's injuries were neither fatal nor crippling, and he can continue to remain in the army.
Seeing Qing Xuanzi's solemn expression after his calculations, Fu Ya anxiously asked, "Brother Qing Xuan, how did it go? What did you find out?"
Qing Xuanzi glanced at the two equally anxious brothers and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem."
Rong Zhigao, unaware of the adult's veiled meaning, looked worriedly at his younger sister, who was still sobbing in his arms, and asked, "Uncle Qingxuan, what's wrong with my sister?"
Qing Xuanzi continued patting Rong Jiaojiao's back, replying, "It's alright, Jiaojiao had a nightmare."
Seeing his mother's frightened and distraught appearance, he asked incredulously, "Uncle Qingxuan, are you sure?"
Rong Zhigao was somewhat incredulous. He looked at his younger sister, who was still sobbing in his arms, his eyes filled with worry. "My sister looks very scared. It doesn't seem like a normal nightmare."
Qing Xuanzi said confidently, "It's alright, you can all go out and let Jiaojiao sleep a little longer."
Everyone talks about bloodline connection, but Fu Ya didn't believe that Jiao Jiao's nightmare was just a simple dream. Her Jiao Jiao was a little fairy; she must have sensed that something had happened to her father.
Fu Ya looked at Qing Xuanzi with a sense of unease, as if she wanted to get the strength from him to help her get out of the room.
"There will be no danger to your life!" Qing Xuanzi said with certainty.
Fu Ya was a little unsteady on her feet, and Rong Zhigao and Rong Zhiyuan quickly helped her up.
Qing Xuanzi said, "Take your mother to the kang (heated brick bed) in the main room and let her lie down for a while."
Just as the two brothers were about to help Fu Ya out, she broke free from their hands, grabbed Qing Xuanzi's arm, and pleaded, "Brother Qing Xuan, can you help Lian Hu? Please help him."
